    Basically you and up to three other players have to cook food in silly-looking kitchens. What I like about this game is that you have to work together instead of competing against each other. The challenges are chaotic and sometimes stressful, but you get a chance to learn how to best work with your teammates. It also helps that the design is simply adorable.

    Get the Overcooked! and Overcooked! 2 combo for Nintendo Switch for $39.99 or just Overcooked! 2 for PS4 for $29.99 from Amazon.

    5. A gigantic game of Jenga so the stakes are (literally) higher.
